Patient's question:
1 Spits up after every feeding with milk or formula.2 Spits up more when breastfeeding, but it's better when drinking formula.
What is the reason for the spitting up? What should I do?
Doctor's answer:
Babies spit up because their digestive system has not fully developed. Their stomachs are flat, making it easy for them to spit up. If a baby eats too quickly or adopts an incorrect feeding position, it can also cause spitting up. After the baby finishes feeding, you can hold them upright and gently pat their back to help them burp, which can reduce spitting up. If necessary, you can visit the hospital for a thorough examination to check for gastroesophageal reflux disease.
